Wentang

Chapter 29 Yue You
Chen Huaiqi blushed and trembled all over, Feng Song and Yang Ze also darkened their faces, and Yue You still lowered his head so no one could see his expression.

The thing is that Beng Yueshan directly drove the four of them out of the house. When they came back, they found their parents and Yue Erwa squatting on the ground and sighing.

"Father, mother, second ancestor, don't worry, they can't do anything to us. You can do whatever you want tomorrow." Yue Shan said in a relaxed tone.

"Why are you alright? They are village elders." Fourth Yue said dejectedly.

"Yeah, when I was in my hometown, I saw with my own eyes that the old man sank a widow in the river and robbed her family's land." Yue Erwa said in horror.

Yue Shan knew something about the bad behavior of those local tyrants, evil gentry and landlords in history.I didn't read it from the history book, but heard it from the old people in the village.

All of them are local emperors, and they do all sorts of evil things in the local area, such as forcing good people into prostitution, seeking wealth and murdering their lives.Even Yue Shan's great grandfather was shot to death by a local tyrant.

His own grandfather escaped by pretending to be a heartless fool. Later, during the liquidation, he shot the local tyrant to death before returning to normal life.

This was true during the period of the Republic of China, not to mention the feudal era more than 1000 years ago.The power of the squire clan is even greater, and it is not too easy to kill an ordinary family.

Yue Shan is not the kind of hot-blooded young man. Although he hates the power of the gentry and clan, he will not recklessly fight against this group.If he really traveled to a place with a huge clan, he would definitely behave with his tail between his legs.

However, this is not the case with Sixingping.

Here are all immigrants who have just migrated here, and no real gentry and clan power has yet been formed.The four village elders were only temporarily selected. They have the name of village elders in vain, but in fact they do not have the power of ordinary elders.

At most, they will wear small shoes for other people's houses, and they want to cover the sky with one hand like the old folks in other places, which is just a dream.

But Yue Shan knew that he couldn't convince the three of them with this reason, so he didn't mention it at all, but asked for the jade ring again: "Have you forgotten King Qin? What is King Qin among the four village elders?" .”

Seeing Yuhuan, the three of Yue Erwa sat down on the ground, crying and laughing as if they had survived a desperate situation.

"Slap." Yue Erwa slapped herself in the face, and let out a weeping laugh: "Why did I forget King Qin, Shanzi belongs to King Qin. Don't say that the four of them are old and immortal, even if the village chief Don't dare to do anything to us."

Hearing this, Yue Shan couldn't stop laughing to himself. Comparing King Qin with Li Chang, he didn't know what Li Shimin's expression would be.A seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister's gate, even a servant in the Qin Palace is not comparable to the head of the village.

The eldest grandson Wugou is indeed Yue Shan's greatest strength.

Since she let her elder brother Changsun Wuji take care of her, it shows that she has some genuine affection for his cheap brother, and she will definitely not let him go.

And counting the time, it has been nearly ten days since Changsun Wuji took Quyuanli away, and the court should have reacted.

At that time, whether it is to make yourself a loose official or reward money, it will be a big deal for the ordinary people with the four surnames Ping.No matter how much the fourth elder hated him, he would bow his head.

It was already midnight to appease the three of them, and they had to go to work the next day, so everyone was going to go back to rest.

Yue Shan opened the door and was about to send Yue Erwa home, but saw a black figure standing up suddenly at the corner of his door.The hairs all over his body stood up in fright, his legs gave way and he almost fell to the ground.

Yue Erwa also spotted the black shadow, and his performance was much better than Yue Shan's. He picked up the door stick to protect Yue Shan behind him, and shouted loudly: "Who?"

"Second uncle is me, don't say anything." Soi Ying was also startled, and quickly said in a low voice.Talking and looking around.

"Yue You? What are you doing here?" Yue Erwa pointed the stick at him still vigilantly.

"I'm here to talk to Second Uncle and Shan Zi." Yue You lowered his voice.

"We have nothing to talk to you about." Thinking of her family's background as King Qin, Yue Erwa spoke very forcefully.

At this moment, Yue Shan finally came to his senses, and looked at Yue You with cannibalistic eyes.Do you know that people who scare people will scare people to death, and I almost became the first time traveler to be scared to death, do you know that?

The moment just now really scared him enough that his heart almost jumped out.

But the performance of his cheap second ancestor just now warmed his heart.This old man usually looks unreliable, but he didn't expect to step forward to protect himself without hesitation at a critical moment, which shows that he really regards himself as a relative.

Since you sincerely treat me like a family member, and I, Yue Shan, am not a wolf-hearted person, you will be my second ancestor from now on.

It was at this moment that Yue Shan truly accepted the old man from more than 1000 years ago, which also meant that his bond with the world was getting deeper and deeper.

"Old Yuexiang, I don't know what you are asking me for?" Yue Shan pulled Yue Erwa's clothes behind his back, reminding him that he had something to say, before asking.

"Can we go in and talk?" Yue You kept looking around, looking guilty.

Yue Shan looked thoughtful, and said, "Yes, come in."

The three of them returned to the house again, and Yue Laosi and his wife, who were making the bed, both showed puzzled expressions when they saw them.

"Yue You, is your surname Yue? You actually teamed up with three people with different surnames to bully our family? Do you think our family is easy to bully?" As soon as she sat down, Yue Erwa couldn't help but start talking. Sprayed.

"I..." Yue You showed a bitter smile, begging for mercy again and again: "Second Uncle, you really wronged me. I can't do anything about the decision the three of them made together."

Hearing these words, Yue Shan was suddenly enlightened. Before Yue You behaved abnormally, hiding in front of his house alone in the middle of the night, and now he was pleading guilty and begging for mercy...all his doubts had come to his mind.

All the answers point to one direction, the officialdom is turbulent.Although the four village elders are not considered officials, they are still competing with each other and dragging each other down.Obviously this time the other three village elders were deliberately spoiling Yue's affairs.

Sure enough, what Yue You said later also confirmed his guess.

"Although it didn't say how many places there are, the four of us all understand that only one person can pass the election. Those who pass will be official village elders or become officials in one step, and the remaining three will lose everything they have now and become ordinary people. .” Yue You said in a bitter tone:
"The four of us all want to pass the general election. We have been looking for suitable political achievements, and we have been trying our best to destroy each other's good deeds. Today I heard that you taught the children in the village to read and write and recruited students. School."

"I admit that I have selfish intentions in this matter. On the surface, the establishment of a school in the village is a joint achievement of everyone, but you are the only one, sir. Your surname is Yue and I am also surnamed Yue. In fact, I will share more credit .”

"The three of them saw this, and deliberately used this method to sabotage the plan to establish a school in the village."

Speaking of this, Yue You said sincerely: "The innocent disaster you encountered today was all because of me. After I went back, I felt very guilty and came here to apologize to you. If they cause trouble for your family in the future, you will come to me. Even if I risk my life, I will protect you all."
